Nice man. And Brett Somers's favorite blank of hearts.

Do you know what happens when you let Veal Prince Orloff sit in an oven too long?

Paul Lynde. Charles Nelson Reilly.

Pretty much all we have left are Rip Taylor, Mario Cantone and Patrick Wilson.

Cherish them all while we still have them.

A lovely man. He taught acting classes here in the valley. He told such wonderful stories.

I was just flipping through the TV channels this morning and came across Match Game on the game show network. C.N.R. was on the show. How ironic.

Had a chance to meet and talk with him in 1978. A very nice man. May he rest in peace.

It's a disgrace that the NY Times Obit I read yesterday did not mention his role in "Hello, Dolly!".

"I've lost everything! Luis, Marty, my baby with Chris, Chris himself, James. All I ever wanted was love." --Sheridan Crane "Passions" ------- "Housework is like bad sex. Every time I do it, I swear I'll never do it again til the next time company comes."--"Lulu" from "Can't Stop The Music" ----- "When the right doors didn't open for him, he went through the wrong ones" - "Sweet Bird of Youth" ------------ --------- "Passions" is uncancelled! See NBC.com for more info.

I sure as hell hope it mentioned his most important role: as HooDoo the Magician on Lidsville with TV's Butch Patrick.

"Hoo-hoo, how's THAT for a topper, hoo-hoo."

Oh, and as the singing Fig Newton. "Chewy chewy rich and gooey inside, golden flakey tender cakey outside, wrap the inside in the outside, is it good? Dart tootin'. Doing the Fig (fig) Fig (fig) Newtonnnnnnn! Hoo-hoo."

Watching reruns of TMG really brings me back

I always got a kick out of him & I tuned in for either him or Rayburn. He was great

He was such a quick wit - always on target and breathtakingly funny.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

I think Chalres was more talented than some give him credit for.
He did a really good episode of X-Files several years back and I remember on the Broadway Golden Age dvd he told some really great stories.
